About This Home
As of July 2020Perched on one of the highest points in Lake Barrington Shores overlooking the 11th fairway, this rare Eastwood model has it all beginning with the private courtyard entry with new landscaping, fencing and paver walkway. From the moment you walk inside, you will recognize this home's thoughtful high-end finishes and attention to detail. The main living area has an open floor plan, vaulted ceilings and recently finished hardwood flooring that runs throughout the first floor. The fireplace and new custom built-in hutch in the dining area adds to the charm. The kitchen overlooks both the dining and living room areas and boasts new quartz countertops, custom backsplash and sink and is complemented by a full suite of stainless appliances. Light floods in through the expansive windows and sliding doors off the dining area that lead to the balcony and the spectacular view of the 11th. Just adjacent to the kitchen is a den with new sliding doors to the private courtyard. Down the hall you will find the conveniently placed laundry room with a new washer and dryer set, second bedroom and hall bathroom with a comfortable jetted tub. The private master suite is a few steps farther with plantation shutters, a walk-in closet and master bath with a double sink vanity with new faucets and large walk in shower. The walk-out lower level has plenty of additional living space that includes the family room with a fireplace and sliding doors to a patio overlooking the fairway and is amazingly light and airy. A built-in bar with a sink and mini fridge makes for convenient entertaining and the exquisite wine room made of mahogany is a showstopper. This level also includes an exercise area, 2 bedrooms, a full bath and storage room. The electric/circuit box and lighting has been added to and upgraded throughout. The 2-car heated garage has direct access-uncommon in LBS. With over $60,000 in upgrades in the last 2 years this exceptional home is move in ready. If that is not enough, enjoy as much or as little as you like with all that Lake Barrington Shores has to offer; two pools, tennis courts, restaurant, golf course, fitness center, walking/biking paths, acres of wooded forest and beautiful Lake Barrington for boating, fishing and the views!
